Grand Theft Auto IV The Complete Edition 6xDVD5 CIUV2

Thanks to Yener for script, Razor12911 for modifications

1. Install the game. Update game to latest version, apply NO-CD if necessary.

2. Download attachment, extract to HD, NOT in Gamefolder.

3. MOVE Directx from gamefolder to GTA_IV_6\Redist\DirectX folder. IF you don't have then copy from another game. Also move vcredist_x86.exe to GTA_IV_6\Redist folder.

4. Run UltraARC, Browse/Select Your installed game, then choose output location. ( Installed Game folder MUST be Main folder. )
IE: D:\Program Files (x86)\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto IV Complete Edition\

5. Test the conversion, before burning ISO.

6. Then burn folder contents to DVDs with same folder name.

DVD1 - 4.37GB
DVD2 - 4.37GB
...
DVD6 - 2.52GB with Redists

Did this conversion took good few hours, but when try install does it in like 5 seconds which not good as not even get to do anything else ???

Did you delete Records.ini from the first DVD? If yes, that's the reason...

ye that has gone as do that before install any conversions ;)

And Dvd's at these:

DVD1 - 5: 4.37GB

DVD6 - 3.46GB without Redists

Well, then... Nice job. You need to restore records.ini. Here's how to do that:

Open NotePad.
See how your files look like (the archives)

And then, just type stuff in.

For single archives, it looks like this:

[Record#] - where # is number of record
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Data#.bin - where # is number of Data file
Output={app}
Disk=# - where # is number of disc the file is on

For PARTS of split archives it looks like this:

[Record#]
Type=Split
Source={src}\Data#x.bin - where # is number of Data file and x is letter of segment (can be a,b,c, depending on order)
Output={tmp}\Data#.bin - where # is number of data file
Disk=#

However after all of the parts of a given segmented archive are in Record, a separate entry is needed for the merged archive itself, in order for the installer to know that it needs to extract it.

[Record#]
Type=Freearc_Split
Source={tmp}\Data#.bin
Output={app}
Disk=#

Hope this helps.

Records.ini must be saved in the same directory that Setup.exe is in. GOOD LUCK!
